  1. Cyberinfrastructure Development for the Western Consortium of Idaho, Nevada, and New Mexico Funding provided by the National Science Foundation (EPS-0919123)

  2. Task Overview • Develop 3-curriculum modules to be used in the summer science institute. • Develop for delivery with Moodle using the 5-DIE framework. • Use the resources identified by the leadership team. • Attend 3-Saturday sessions for PD and collaborative work. • Work as a team of two to develop one of the units. • Collaboratively review, pilot, debug the work of other teams. • Complete development and pilot testing of all materials by May 16, 2011.

  3. Collaboration Model UNLV Leadership Teacher Participants • Knowledge and experience teaching science to secondary students. • Interest and comfort with technology. • Commitment to HQ science teaching & learning • Willingness to experiment with cyberlearning. • Resources • Support • Expertise • Commitment to supporting HQ science teaching & learning • Cyberlearning environment, R&D Cyberlearning

  4. Cyberinfrastructure - the new research environments that support advanced data acquisition, data storage, data management, data integration, data mining, data visualization and other computing and information processing services over the Internet. Cyberlearning – The use of networked computing and communications technologies to support learning.
